I just wanted to drop by and offer support, as i have been though something very similar regarding work.
My advice is to open up as much as possible, but what i found is that the manager/assistant manager had to real experiance with self harmers etc and were abit ignorant.
What i did was join the union which offered me alot of advice and support when i needed it. Also if they are causng you problems you can call HR to confrim their policies on things as my manager lied to me saying i could be sacked if i OD'd again and had to be off sick. A quick call to HR and i found this to be false.
In the end i was sectioned so they did something called an occupational health assesment, If you get offered one of these they are usually to see what can be put in place to help you with work.
If you need anymore advice PM me or something xxx
